"For some time, I was uncertain whether the dream came from him or from Aornis. But I can remember now that I met Aornis well after this dream." It doesn't matter; what Luo Binghe has done to him is only half as relevant as what he has done to Claudius. "He entered Claudius' dreams, too. It was a less cruel effort, but no less manipulative." And, no matter how Claudius laughed about that dream with him and Crowley, he still considers it unconscionable for Luo Binghe to have invaded his mind at all. Surely he ought to have been satisfied with his temporary but complete control of Claudius' body.
